Speaker 1: Welcome to Music to our Ears, where we share some
Speaker 1: interesting tidbits and stories related to our favorite lingo kids songs.
Speaker 1: Today we're at band camp, where kids come to learn
Speaker 1: to play musical instruments. We'll hear all kinds of music
Speaker 1: at band camp.
Speaker 2: Follow me. We just heard a duet, a song.
Speaker 1: Made from two instruments with equal importance, the piano and saxophone.
Speaker 1: Big beautiful music together, don't you think. Yes, there's music
Speaker 1: coming from a big tent. Let's go inside and have
Speaker 1: a listen. How many instruments do you hear?
Speaker 2: Three?
Speaker 1: That's called a trio. There's a violin, a cello, and
Speaker 1: a bass. Three is not a crowd when these string
Speaker 1: instruments play together. Next, we'll visit a quartet. Guess how
Speaker 1: many instruments are in that band. A quartet is four musicians,
Speaker 1: usually playing woodwind instruments like the flute, the obo, the clarinet,
Speaker 1: and the Bussoon, let's hear them play together. Four snaps
Speaker 1: for that group. Not every musician is in a band.
Speaker 1: Some musicians prefer to play solo by themselves. This musician
Speaker 1: is warming up his acoustic guitar. That song got my
Speaker 1: feet tapping and my hands clappin'. An acoustic guitar is
Speaker 1: not plugged in for a bigger sound. Let's go to
Speaker 1: the studio to hear an electric guitar and drums being played.
Speaker 2: I'm going to plug my ears. You should too. WHOA,
Speaker 2: that sounds great, It really rocks.
Speaker 1: The great thing about learning to play a musical instrument
Speaker 1: is you can make the music you like alone, with
Speaker 1: a partner, or with a whole bunch of musicians.
Speaker 2: How does that sound. That's music to want.
Speaker 1: Well, then let's sing a song about being in a band. Ready,
Speaker 1: here we go.
